Abstract:
OBJECTIVE: To analyze the distribution of network reported suspected occupational diseases( SOD),and the follow-up of confirmed diagnosis of occupational diseases in Guangdong Province from 2014 to 2017. METHODS: In July2018,the SOD cases reported from 2014 to 2017 in the direct network of Guangdong Province were collected as study subjects through the Suspected Occupational Diseases Report Card,Occupational Disease Report Card and Pneumoconiosis Report Card from the subsystem of National Information Surveillance System for Occupational Disease and Occupational Health. And the institutions for occupational disease diagnosis were asked to collect related data of applying for diagnosis and to investigate the final confirmed diagnostic status through the report cards of occupational diseases and pneumoconiosis. RESULTS: A total of 10 155 SOD cases were reported in Guangdong Province from 2014 to 2017,with an average annual growth rate of 62. 2% and an increasing trend year by year. The top three SOD were: suspected occupational otorhinolaryngological oral diseases( 58. 9%), particularly the suspected occupational noise deafness( 99. 9%); suspected occupational chronic chemical poisoning( 24. 6%),particularly suspected occupational chronic benzene poisoning( 88. 4%); and suspected occupational pneumoconiosis( 12. 8%). In total,there were 3 514 SOD cases applying for occupational diseases diagnosis,and the appication rate was 34. 6%. The final confirmed diagnosis rate was 59. 5%( 2 090/3 514). The application rate of occupational otorhinolaryngological oral diseases,occupational chronic chemical poisoning,occupational pneumoconiosis was 33. 8%,31. 3% and 35. 7%,while the final confirmed diagnosis rate was 54. 0%,49. 9% and 89. 5%. The application rate and the final confirmed diagnosis rate were the highest in the occupational disease prevention and treatment institutions, with the rate of 58. 1% and 70. 2% respectively. The application rate and the final confirmed diagnosis rate from occupational health examination were lower than those from occupational disease diagnosis institution,outpatient department and hospitalization( P < 0. 005). CONCLUSION: There is a rapid increasing trend of SOD in Guangdong Province from 2014 to 2017,but the confirmed diagnosis rate is low.
